ben is calling us from wayne mark california. welcome to the "bill press show" >> caller: thank you john. big fan of yours. one of the most impressive thing you said once was whenever you're engaged in a discussion with someone who's opposed to what you're saying, you're really not going to affect them as much as you're going to affect people who are listening in. >> john: thank you, ben for bringing that up. that is great advice for everyone going home to thanksgiving and terrified about the angry write wing uncle or the angry left wing uncle. if you have someone difficult at the thanksgiving table if they want to fight politics with you you can win over everybody else at the table if you handle them with grace patience, humor and facts. >> right. the point i wanted to make, you talk about native americans you know sometimes they refer to themselves as first nations people. one of the first nations people, shenandoah, he said participating in change is much different from trying to impose it. and what i like -- what's just happe

i worked at the university california system and i know what i'm talking about. but it was a good system. i don't say this to the pejorative. they knew they were doing and the system was quite strong, but the nature and of the dynamic between the state institutions and what the public needs from the system is very different now than it was years ago. i think that we still need to have systems some might argue against that but one of my greatest for two reasons, one of my greatest concerns in the public higher education has to do with the erosion of the historic firewall between the government and institutions over academic policies. there's all kind of reasons that's happening, and it's not necessarily bad that the people now care about economic policy in a way that maybe they didn't. but the reality is that we have the business of who gets into higher education who is admitted and how they are taught, what counts for the curriculum, what counts for the credit or increasingly becoming the stuff of regulation and legislation and i worry that without this being a l

those are the ones -- and similarly, on the west coast, when you have arizona and california and washington all competing because there is not enough space in states, is is really problematic. when i was out there on some version of this, there chinese students are out, i think 10%. there is more chinese students then from elsewhere in the united states. i was talking to their relatively-a new president and could they have a new system where the american students not from washington paid more than the in-state students, but substantially less in the foreign students. he said, there might be some support for that, because after all, we are getting a fair amount of national funding one way or another. but, of course, that are private to the out-of-state people. there is also a national obligation about how we are going to educate the most people most chiefly. >> my return to that for a moment. in the national academy report and recommendations there were making to committees, states, and businesses and universities, we rackham -- we recognized that the number one concern of the american publi

we had something on the ballot that was very similar to what california did, but it was a presidential year, sherrod brown was up and now the big race this year, and money was being allocated towards other priorities, but you have to do it at the a state level, and it probably needs to be on an off-year election and we're going to have to rely on our allies in labor as to why this would be better. when we passed health care a couple of years ago, we had five or six additional members in the ohio delegation and we lost them all. so -- >> stephanie: and that's the bad news, and yet the good news is despite citizens united and in spite of all of these republican voter suppression efforts, it all backfired, right? >> yeah. and you look at all of the money obama had to spend. fortunately they were a lot smarter, and it is heartening though. we knocked on doors. my staff volunteers their time. i was walking around for the whole week leading up to the election, and there is nothing more beautiful than when you knock on 50 or 100 doors a day, and think there are thousands of people in ohio doi

romney was recently spotted pumping his own gas in california. no secret service, no advisers, and no words on whether he used regular or premium. romney thought he'd be on the road to the white house by now. instead, he's just on the road. meanwhile, the president is heading home on air force one after meeting with world leaders. he didn't pump the gas for that plane. here's the point. elections have consequences. the american people rejected romney's right wing views. but a lot of republicans didn't get the message. bill o'reilly is still defending romney's claim that the president won because of gifts to minorities. >> again, that's the truth. it is a stone cold fact that lower income americans, largely, re-elected president obama. now, the left is going to scream when you say that because they don't want to acknowledge the economics of the vote. liberals want to see themselves as noble. they don't want to consider the fact that entitlements buy votes. >> hear that? over at fox romney's right arm. and there's a lot of other republicans who are
